General Comments

I bought a 206 exactly a week ago, i havnt had a day driving it. Sitting at traffic lights it cuts out, going round a roundabout it cuts out, I got my two kids out it fast. Took it to peugeot who told me the ECU (the brain) was gone and it would cost £951 plus vat to replace. The service manager was fantastic and gave me a garage in Kirkintilloch who repairs them even though he could be sacked for doing this, its getting repaired at a cost of £200, and at worst replaced at £300. Then its getting sold my kids are terrified of it, thank goodness the people who were driving behind me realised I was in bother or something more serious could have happened.

    Can you give me the name of the garage as we have the same problem it is one thing after another and they all seem to relate to this ECU fault.

    Same as me, I recently passed my driving test I was happy and confident I drove a Megane and Corsa no problem, I couldn't wait to pass, I bought a Peugeot 206 and my confidence has gone, I hate it I thought it was me, but that always happens to me it just conks out totally always stalls I ' ve had my "p" plates on for 7 month I ' m scared to take them of I don ' t go anywhere except shopping and back as its on flat road I try to explain it but people don ' t get it they say its me but yeah it does same as you, I can ' t afford a new car I ' m stuck with it.
